Duplicate attribute in config.xml

When trying to build via voltbuilder today I am getting the following error: Parse Error in config.xml: duplicate attribute: line 2, column 160

I have checked my config.xml against a version that I was able to build last week and there are no differences. I have tried building the older version that I know built last week and I’ve tried building from different systems/platforms (windows 10 & mac) and I’m getting the same error everywhere.

Has there been a change to the config.xml that isn’t documented?

Can you post the first 3 lines of your config.xml?

Here’s the whole config.xml

I’ve got a pretty good idea what is happening - we’ll get it fixed in the next couple of hours.

OK, give it another try.

A few days ago, we added an enhancement to automatically define the android namespace in config.xml (people forget to sometimes). This worked fine until your project: you define the android namespace, but in a non-standard way. The fix we just did allows for what you’re doing.

That did the trick… thank you.
